PATH_COUNT=0

for result in "`find "$START_PATH" -type d \( -iname "$TARGET" \) \;`"
do
  PATH_RESULTS[$PATH_COUNT]="$result"
  echo "${PATH_RESULTS[$PATH_COUNT]}"
  # more code
  #
  let PATH_COUNT=PATH_COUNT+1
done

Hey thanks again, this worked to make the data global but now with this option, find provides all the paths into 1 variable instead of each path being it's own value in the array.

PATH_RESULTS ends up holding the value of all of the results rather than PATH_RESULTS[x] being 1 result each, any way to combine the pipe option which worked this way with the global variable result of this version?

mssql_fetch_row

MSSQL_FETCH_ROW(3)														MSSQL_FETCH_ROW(3)

mssql_fetch_row - Get row as enumerated array

SYNOPSIS

       array mssql_fetch_row (resource	$result)

DESCRIPTION

       mssql_fetch_row(3)  fetches  one  row  of  data	from the result associated with the specified result identifier. The row is returned as an
       array. Each result column is stored in an array offset, starting at offset 0.

	Subsequent call to mssql_fetch_row(3) would return the next row in the result set, or FALSE if there are no more rows.

PARAMETERS

	      o $result
		- The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mssql_query(3).

RETURN VALUES

	Returns an array that corresponds to the fetched row, or FALSE if there are no more rows.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      mssql_fetch_row(3) example

	      <?php
	      // Connect to MSSQL and select the database
	      $link = mssql_connect('MANGOSQLEXPRESS', 'sa', 'phpfi');
	      mssql_select_db('php', $link);

	      // Query to execute
	      $query = mssql_query('SELECT [id], [quote] FROM [quotes] WHERE [id] = '42'', $link);

	      // Did the query fail?
	      if (!$query) {
		  die('MSSQL error: ' . mssql_get_last_message());
	      }

	      // Fetch the row
	      $row = mssql_fetch_row($query);

	      // Print the 'quote'
	      echo 'Quote #' . $row[0] . ': "' . $row[1] . '"';
	      ?>

	      The above example will output something similar to:

	      Quote #42: "The answer to everything..."

NOTES

       Note

	      This function sets NULL fields to the PHP NULL value.
